What Are Verified Specialty Topics?
Unlocking a Verified Specialty confirms that you’ve completed training in sensitive or high-responsibility yoga topics, such as pregnancy, mental health, or cancer. It assures students and employers that your qualification meets professional safety standards.
Why This Matters
Some areas of yoga teaching require additional care and understanding.Topics like trauma, aerial, or Nidra demand specialist training to keep students safe and supported.
Verified Specialties exist to confirm that your qualification in these areas meets Yoga Pros standards. When a specialty is verified, it signals to studios, employers, and the public that your training has been checked for depth, scope, and relevance: not just completion.
